I have on multiple occasions been approached by old gentlemen seeking assistance with ATM. Some had their PINS written on a piece of paper.

Upon drawing my attention, they'd start handing me the piece of paper and a card before they even explain their predicament. Each time, I'd politely decline, try to educate them about the dangers of their actions before referring them to bank staff. Security also refused to assist.

Nope, just tap and pay. The default limit for some tap and pay cards before a pin is required can be pretty high(my default was R1k and it was an opt out rather than in) , so poor bloke maybe didn't even know it worked?

My grandmother or one of us started to accompany him to the ATM when he wanted to draw money for precisely that reason

They could also be AA/BEE candidates, something for Hemi to work with.
